- dang 9y agoIt isn't only the meta aspect but also that it's a piggyback submission, i.e. a spinoff of another. Those tend to get upvotes and diminish variety on the front page. Since front page slots are HN's scarcest resource and the hivemind thrives on variety, we usually moderate follow-up submissions pretty firmly. A better place for correlated links is within the primary thread, where indeed this one is happily situated. Once everyone's mental caches have turned over a few times, this will make a nice submission in its own right.
